smithwrecker Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 Hi all, I was in the process of getting together all the parts I needed to stretch a 110 to 127/130 and building a high cap double cab pick up. Simples, or so I thought!!!, got all the bodywork together(just need a roof panel, if anyone has a cheap one?) And an excellent rolling chassis to chop and stretch.However having measured the bodywork/trial fit it, it appears to me that I will need to stretch it by 32 inches!!!!??? And not the 17 inches I was believing. This leaves me with a question/problem, are the body panels, ie. Second row doors and high cap pick up bodies unique to the 130? I've bought doors/chills/B posts from a 110 CSW and a high cap body off I was told a 110/130 but when I add them all together comes to 142inches????? Which seems a tad long! Any help or advice gratefully received! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmatt Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 I think you will find you have a tub off a 110 hicap not a 130 double cab. the 110 hicap tub has quite abit infront of the rear axle a 130 hi cap tub barely goes forward of the rear axle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
db950 Posted April 3, 2013 Share Posted April 3, 2013 As already said, the 130 does not have a hi cap body but a shorter pick up bed. If you want double cab and hi cap body then you will have to stretch it to nearly 150" A friend has already done it and it looks a beast! Turning circle of a battleship though!

muddy Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Iirc 110 is 9" longer in front of the wheel arches, you can shorten them but it's a bigger job than it looks. I'd stretch the chassis more, although you will need a custom prop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
